PORTUGAL. Banco de Portugal. 20 Mil Reis, 1892. P-71. Fine.

An extremely scarce offering of this June 28 1892 dated 20 Mil Reis note. Allegorical figures are depicted at the top left and right margins, with arms at center. A floral design is found at the bottom with a "20" counter at lower center. The reverse displays arms at left and a counter at right, both of which are surrounded by ornate guilloches. The embossed seal at center is still visible and offers good appeal for the assigned condition. Internal tears are noticed at the center fold, with margin tears noticed at center. Found in Fine condition. While this note is not encapsulated by a grading company, PMG's Population Report lists just one example in their census. We can't imagine more than a handful of these notes are floating around. Scarce, and sure to draw spirited bidding.

Estimate: $3000.00 - $4000.00

1892年葡萄牙銀行20密爾雷斯。

這張 1892 年 6 月 28 日發行的20密爾雷斯紙幣極為稀有。左上角和右上角描繪了寓言人物，中間有徽章。底部有花卉圖案，中間下部有一個"20"面值。背面左有徽章，又有面值，兩者都外繞華麗團花。中心的壓紋仍然可見，此評分而言賞心悅目。在中心折疊處發現內部撕裂，中央處亦有紙緣撕裂。FINE品相。雖然這張紙幣不是由評級公司封裝的，但 PMG 的記錄中僅顯示他們只評過一枚，可見市面上此版紙幣可算是鳳毛麟角。稀缺，定會引來熱烈的競標。
